Hello friends,
Today's video is a storytime featuring my recent addition to my space. I did this video to share my experience buying appliances in Kenya and the challenges I went through throughout the process.
If you've had a similar experience, please share with us below and let us know the challenges you went through. My hope is that no one goes through the same experience as mine and that people can learn through my experience and take caution if they take my route.
Anyway, enjoy the video, and if you do, please drop me a like and level your tips and tricks down in the comments section. Love ya!!

Hey, remember to keep the door open after use. The air causes water to evaporate faster. your washer will remain dry and mould free.
Wangui is an achiever and a motivator....go gal...lots of love...

The frustration over bad customer service in Africa (I'm mentioning Africa because I live in Africa and already experienced some African countries) is appalling. I live now in Angola and can tell that the shops are always happy to get your money when you buy but when it comes to the after sales/customer service when troubles come, they greatly lack professionalism and they basically don't help. Pep of Angola is one of those shops where the meaning of guarantee in South Africa is different from the ones in Angola, Unitel (the biggest telecom company in Angola and the one I use) also is totally crappy for customer after sales service...I can go on and on with the banks of this country and many shops. All of this just to say that I get your frustration but thank you for honoring God by remaining patient and slapping no one 🙂. Your machine looks nice. I've never heard before of the brand but I'm glad to learn of its existence

People, for appliances always try go to the direct manufacturer or dealer NOT a supermarket, shipping is more efficient & manufacturers work on & honour warranty related issues way faster/quicker than supermarkets or 2nd tier retailers.

I have not shopped from carrefour since they told me they don't go past 1st Floor and the apartment I live in am on 3rd Floor.
